About: Hi there... Olá... ¡Hola! :) We’re Beatriz and Gabriel, a Brazilian digital nomad couple who truly live and breathe pet and house sitting full-time while traveling the world. Since 2022, we’ve completed over 30 sits around the globe through another trusted pet sitting platform, caring for more than 60 pets in countries like England, Scotland, France, Switzerland, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, and Portugal. Our experience covers everything from tiny pets to large dogs (35kg+), and we’ve cared for anywhere between 1 and 4 pets at the same time. We’re comfortable handling different personalities, energy levels, and routines — from playful puppies to gentle seniors who need extra care. We’re experienced with: • Caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments • Administering oral medications • Following special diets and feeding routines • Providing daily walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles For us, pet sitting isn’t just something we do — it’s our lifestyle, and we’re passionate about keeping pets safe, happy, and loved while their families are away <3 Pet care is our full-time lifestyle. While traveling the world, we structure our days around the pets we care for, ensuring they get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. Our daily routine typically includes: • Morning walks and playtime • Feeding and administering any medications as needed • Lots of cuddles, mental stimulation, and interaction throughout the day • Evening walks, play, and quiet time before bedtime Because we work remotely, we’re always present and able to fully integrate pets into our daily routine, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their families are away. We treat every home and pet as if they were our own. Safety, trust, and respect are always our top priorities. In a pet owner’s home, we: • Follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, and routines • Ensure pets are supervised, safe, and comfortable at all times • Keep the home secure and tidy, respecting the owner’s property • Provide plenty of love, attention, and companionship, so pets feel happy and relaxed • Communicate regularly with owners, sending updates and photos to give peace of mind Whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior cat, or multiple pets at once, we adapt to each pet’s needs and create a safe, loving, and calm environment while their family is away.

About: I’ve recently moved to Brighton from London where I previously did dog walking/sittings. I enjoyed doing this so much that I would like to start it up again here in Brighton. I grew up around dogs and other pets my whole life and have a good understanding of different breeds and understanding their different needs. I have a lot of experience from working with my brother in his dog walking business in London, I’ve done dog walks, dog and cat sittings and also drop in visits, all of that is what I will be doing here. I’ve looked after and walked puppies, senior and also anxious/reactive dogs and have never had a problem in the past 1-2 years of doing this. In my photos I have just some of the dogs I have walked which shows the different breeds and sizes of the dogs. I’ve always been an animal lover from growing up around animals and would love to help others out with their pets ☺️ Im currently planning on doing dog walking full time so I would have weekends and Weekdays available, I can take bookings in advance and also last minute bookings. I would like to do a meeting before walking or looking after your dog, so that I can meet you and your dog and let them get comfortable with me and also to learn their needs and if they are allowed off lead, if they’re good with other dogs, etc…

About: I started caring for dogs with my family from a young age before getting our own dog at the age of 13. When I was 19 I took the plunge and got my own little happy boy who I would not be without. Your dog needs to get on with my dog (6 year old male cockapoo). I will only do weekday daycare if your dog is trained and happy to be left with my dog whilst I'm at work (I pop home for an hour at lunch). Mainly looking to fufill evening and weekend sittings. No cats. I work 8-5 weekdays but pop home for an hour at lunch. I have some Friday afternoons and Monday mornings off and work every other Saturday morning I have lots of toys and constant supply of water. Oli will make a great play mate for your doggy and he will love the company. I have a safely enclosed communal garden which only residents can access. We love big walks especially beach trips so your pooch will be well exercised! I drive so am happy to adventure and also pick up and drop off your dog.

“Oliwia was great, she responded to my last minute booking request, and put my mind at ease that my cat was in good hands. She listened well to my instructions and I appreciated the daily updates and pics.”


“Annabel was a fantastic friend to my cat while I was away for a week. Her kindness, understanding and caring nature meant that Blossom was very happy and looked forward to her daily visits. I would not hesitate to recommend Annabel - she really is certainly someone that can be relied on with any pet she is asked to look after. Thank you so much to Annabel!”


About: I’ve done overnight stays looking after my neighbours dog for up to a month at a time since I was 15. I have also had multiple jobs doing day care for cats, rabbits and guinea pigs. I have lots of experience with both special needs and senior dogs as I regularly dogsit for a 16 year old cockapoo who is deaf and blind. I have also had multiple dogs of my own so am able to handle puppies. I also have experience walking multiple dogs at a time as I often walk three of my neighbours dogs. I am currently in first year, studying anthropology at university and so have a very flexible schedule each week. This means I would have lots of time throughout my day to walk/ care for pets. I have 4 years experience dogsitting overnight for long periods at a time so I have good experience of keeping the pets happy and the house organised. I am able to crate a dog if necessary and keep the house tidy.

“Samantha took care of my cat while I was away. Communication was clear and prompt, and thanks to her, my cat and I were reunited safe and healthy. Thank you, Samantha!”


About: Hi there! My name is Ellen and I'm an Australian who has recently moved to Brighton. I'm missing my dog back home and would love the opportunity to care for your dogs! I've owned dogs throughout my life and have experience petsitting for neighbours and family friends. Our family got our first dog when I was 7 and he lived for 14 years in our care. This has given me experience caring for dogs of all ages. My family recently got a puppy, so I also know how to care for a puppy still learning the basics of obedience. I am more than willing to look after puppies, adult dogs and senior dogs. I'm happy to do home visits, dog walks and dog sit overnight. I'll give your dog plenty of love and cuddles. I unfortunately cannot look after your dog in my place, but am willing to travel to your home to give your dog the best care possible. I'm missing my dog at home and would love to care for your dog when you need someone reliable. Please get in touch if you're interested in my services in the Brighton area. I am currently engaged in full-time work, so I only have good availability on weeknights and all day on weekends. I can only provide overnight dogsitting services on weekdays, if you are comfortable with your dog being left alone during the day. I am more than willing to accept last minute bookings. I cannot currently care for pets in my own home. I am willing to adapt to the pet owner's home based on what they have already established with their pet (e.g. allowed outside at certain times).

About: Hey, I’m Jenna!🐾 An animal lover with a passion for caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes and personalities. I’ve been a dedicated sitter on Rover for a while and I’ve had the pleasure of looking after a wide variety of pups, from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs, each with their own quirks and needs. I have lots of experience with dogs who deal with anxiety and separation anxiety, so I know how to create a calm, comforting environment where they can feel secure. My goal is to ensure your dog feels happy, safe, and cared for while you're away, just like they would at home. - Can administer medication where needed. - Comfortable walking up to 2 dogs at one time. - Would love a meet-up beforehand to meet you & your dog, to ensure a plan that works for everyone. I currently work from home on weekdays. My job is relatively flexible to work around and I can try to work things to fit your schedule where possible. When in your pets home, I will aim to keep a general routine as close to normal for the dog. With fresh water available at all times and regular feeding. Whether caring for an older dog that would prefer shorter walks and more time to chill or the opposite! Lots of playtime, longer walks and enrichment. We’ll discuss regular feeding times and anything else you feel important to note to ensure your pets happiness.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and couldn’t imagine it any other way. Growing up with dogs taught me how to read their behavior, understand their needs, and care for them with patience and love. I now have my own dog who is 4.5 years old, who I have had since a pup, so I fully understand the trust it takes to leave your pup with someone else. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship, I treat every dog like family. I’m attentive, dependable, and committed to making your dog feel safe, happy, and at home while you’re away. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening cuddles, I can easily adjust to meet your dog’s routine and needs. Your pup will get plenty of time, love, and attention while you’re away! In my home, your dog will be treated like part of the family. I have a secure, fenced-in garden where pups can safely play and get fresh air. Inside, they’ll have a calm, comfortable space to relax - and plenty of attention throughout the day. I also have my own friendly dog who loves having canine company. I always take time to do slow introductions to make sure everyone feels safe and happy. Whether in my home or yours, I stick closely to your dog’s routine, provide regular potty breaks, playtime, meals, and of course, lots of love and snuggles.

About: I have a lifelong love for dogs, having grown up with a variety of breeds, including a Flat-Coated Retriever, West Highland Terrier and a Bearded Collie. My experience includes both puppy training and senior dog care, allowing me to understand the unique needs of dogs at different life stages. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have looked after dogs for friends and colleagues, providing a loving and attentive environment for their furry friends. My professional background has included working in environments with therapy dogs. I am currently in a flexible and remote role which allows me the freedom to work from different places. Due to a change in working environment I ensure that I get out of the house in the mornings before work, during lunch, and in the evenings I am happy to adapt to the expectations within a pet owners home. I welcome guidance on how best to support the pet in their owners absence.

About: Account shared by Sophie & Yando, living together in central Brighton! Sophie: I have taken care of dogs my whole life, starting with two family Jack Russel terriers, since boarding dogs of all shapes and sizes, giving them their home away from home! I have cared for multiple dogs from different homes, and all banded together as a happy family for a weekend! I'd care for your dog as my own, as i understand the stress and worry a pet can feel when it's away from its family. Yando: I have done professional dog walking in the past, taking out groups of dogs on walks in the park, it's great to get to know the dogs and see their personalities come out in a group setting. This also gave me a strong insight of what triggers to look out for, and how to handle a dog properly. Your dog would be in safe hands with us, plus, twice the attention for your pooch! Sophie - I work from home on and off throughout the week, so weekday care availability does change, weekends can be available upon request. Yando no longer works from home, but will be available during school holidays for walking, home visits and boarding. Our home would be free rein for your pets, we are happy for them to sit on the sofa or curl up on the bed! We also live two minutes from the beach so walks would be taken along the pebbles and paddling in the shores.

About: Hello! As a lover of all animals, big and small, I am passionate about providing the best care for your furry friends and making sure that they feel safe, cared for, and ready to have some fun! I have successfully cared for my friends', family's, and colleagues' pets, making sure that both the animal and owner feel safe and comfortable with the service. I have provided in-house, overnight care, and made sure that the animal receives everything it needs, whether that be a specific food routine or some extra attention! For dogs, I love being outside and going for walks, so will be ready to give them lots of outdoors time in parks and at the beach! I have also spent time volunteering in sanctuaries for cats and elephants while traveling, deepening my understanding of care for all animals. I am passionate about animals and will treat your pet as if they are my own. I know being with someone new can make some animals feel a bit anxious, so I will do my best to make sure they feel as comfortable as possible! I also want you to feel comfortable when entrusting your furry friend to me, and will make sure to send you as many updates as you would like, so that you know what's going on! I also live with my partner, meaning your furry friend will get double the attention! I live with my partner so there is always someone available! My partner works remotely so will be available if I'm not! She's in my photos so you know who we are! And you will receive updates from us so you know how your furry friend is getting on! Myself or my partner will stay with your pet all day, either in my home, or yours. Send me a message and we can discuss the best situation for you and your pet!

About: I have over 25 years of experience loving and looking after cats, and 6 years with dogs. I've been around animals all my life. I trained my own dog using positive reinforcement and believe in treating all pets with kindness and respect. One of my passions is helping stray animals. Back in my home country, Georgia, I would often bring home strays, take them to the vet, nurse them back to health, and find them loving forever homes (which is how I found and decided to keep my own doggo). It's incredibly rewarding to see a once homeless pet thrive in a new family. Considering my experience, I would gladly administer any medication your pet might need. I also used to regularly volunteer to walk dogs from dog shelters in Georgia. I believe in positive reinforcement and am firmly against any form of punishment. Every pet deserves to be treated with love and care, and that's exactly what I offer. Your pets will be in safe, experienced, and loving hands with me! Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I am currently unemployed, looking for a job. So I have a lot of free time to care for your pets. Any last-minute requests are also welcome. I have an extremely friendly, medium-sized dog, Sai at home. I can only board one dog at a time. They'll be in different rooms at night when I can't properly supervise them

About: I have grown up with dogs of different breeds and sizes and am confident and happy around dogs. I show all animals the utmost respect and will ensure take pride in how comfortable they are around me. I am happy to take your que with any ongoing training, or medical care that maybe required. I am currently working part-time (only on half days) so have plenty of time to be there for your pets. I am also available over the weekends. I will ensure to keep your pet mentally as well as physically stimulated. I am happy to stick to your schedule and am flexible in my approach.

About: Don't want to put your pet in a kennel or cattery? I am an experienced pet sitter able to visit or live in if you are away, on holiday or not able to take your pet with you I look after animals in Lewes, Brighton, Hove and surrounding areas I look after and have owned dogs, cats, tortoises, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters and rats References available I am already an established pet sitter; I always meet you and your pets beforehand and take down info such as your registered vet, emergency contact etc In my experience animals are happier in their home if the owner is away. My references are people who know me well and whose pets I have looked for often

About: I have had cats since I was 3 years old and have always been a massive dog lover. I got a Dog (a Shih tzu) at age 17 that I trained myself and spent years caring for and walking. I have also dog sit on multiple occasions for family friends and while babysitting. I work full time but am only in the office on Tuesdays and Fridays so would love to look after your dog while working from home the rest of the week. I am able to take breaks to go on long walks or short, frequent walks and will be happy to give your dog lots of attention throughout the day. I am happy to give your dog as much attention as they need and take them on walks and toilet breaks whenever they are needed.

Beatriz F.
“I met Beatrice and her husband the wonderful soft spoken Gabriel in Sept of 2023. Both are very courteous and polite couple. Clean too. They are respectful towards my home, animals and cared for them the way they would as their own pets. Gabriel loves to cook. He is an exceptional chef and respects my kitchen at all times. Always cleaning up and very tidy. I had communication on a weekly basis and i received pictures of my pets and their walks. I had at no time felt stressed or anxious when i was away from them. Beatrice is always smiling and so very soft spoken. Truly these two are the perfect couple to complete a sit.I returned to a very clean home, and happy animals. If they are ever travelling via Portugal and needed a place to stay, my doors are always open for Beatrice and Gabriel. I wish them both all success and happiness followed by good health always!!

Eva V.
“I have been using her to look after my 2 dogs Oscar and Rufus for the last few years and they love her to bits- sometimes I think they prefer her to me! She really goes above and beyond to make them feel safe and well looked after - especially with the elder of my 2 dogs who is diabetic and needs insulin shots twice a day - when he was first diagnosed, she took extensive notes and when I was showing her how to inject him she made sure she understood all aspects of his care - she is meticulous with making sure they stick to a strict diet and feeding times (for the diabetic dog he needs strict monitoring as he is a gannet!) and I feel totally confident in her abilities to look after them for long periods of time - when she stays over she is respectful of my property and always makes sure it is left in the same condition! I honestly don't think I could leave my two with anyone else. I highly recommend her for your pets - it would be the best decision you have made form them!”


Matilda A.
“I would throughly recommend Tilly as a pet sitter. She’s a huge animal lover and has looked after and walked my Cockapoo, Scout, on a number of occasions (often along with my young children - no small job!). Tilly is kind, fun, super reliable and communicative so you can trust her with different pet diets, schedules and needs. She’d be equally brilliant with quiet, chilled out pets and high energy, active ones.”
